One beverage to outsell soda for the first time this year

Sales of one beverage have reportedlyskyrocketed in 2016, becoming more popular than soda in the U.S. for the first time this year. So what are Americans chugging on these hot summer days if it's not Coca-Cola?

Bottled water.

That's right! Bottled water is now the drink of choice over typical fan-favorite carbonated beverages.

According to Bloomberg, the biggest U.S. bottled-water companies -- Nestle Waters, Coca-Cola Co., PepsiCo Inc. and Dr Pepper Snapple Group -- say consumers have made the switch for both the convenience and nutritional reasons. This shift in behavior reflects America's increasing focus on health and low-calorie alternatives to soda.
